Answer: A solid 4% chance of picking a yellow

brainliest plz

Step-by-step explanation: We first should combine 300 and 75 because those are the total values of the candies in the bag. After, we should divide the different candies by the total amount of them getting the numbers .8 for red and .2 for yellow. Since the question is that the yellow occurs but not the red and you can miss the bag you would want to calculate what the probability would be to have B happen but not A. The equation for that is:

(1 - P(A)) × P(B)  

where P(A)=.8 and P(B)=.2

plugging in all things it would be

(1-.8)*.2

which equals .04 or 4%

An arithmetic sequence "a" starts with 84, 77 define "a" recursively
sweet [91]

Answer:

First, let's define an arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between any two consecutive terms is always the same.

Then we can write it in a general way as:

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)*d

where:

aₙ is the n-th term of the sequence.

d is the constant difference between two consecutive terms.

a₁ is the initial term of our sequence.

Now in this case we know that the first terms of our sequence are:

84, 77, ...

Then we know the initial term of our sequence:

a₁ = 84.

And the value of d can be calculated as:

d = a₂ - a₁ = 77 - 84 = -7

Then the general way of writing this sequence is:

aₙ = 84 + (n - 1)*(-7)

And the recursion relation is:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ - 7

So for the n-th term, we must subtract 7 of the previous term.
